Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Orosz is a master of anamorphosis—his artwork requires specific viewing angles to resolve hidden images, and Mazes extends this technique into temporal space.
The film channels Hungarian avant-garde traditions and Borges' literary labyrinths, positioning animation as legitimate philosophical inquiry rather than mere entertainment.
